      When removing unversioned files, move them to Trash instead of deleting them forever. And since the remove actions becomes reversible, don't show a confirmation dialog when removing unversioned files. I'd also recommend naming the action "Move to Trash" instead of "Remove"

            The change should have been generic across both DVCSes… are you seeing something different?

            I guess the fix is only for Mercurial?
            Will there be a fix for the next Source tree version as well or do we need to open another Issue?

            Please elaborate on how this change made it worse or led to the situation. Prior to this change the unversioned files were simply deleted (rm style), now they are moved to the trash and you have a chance to recover them.

            I am really pissed off right now because of this behaviour.
            I cannot understand why this is "Minor". I just removed one day of work by mistake. Thank you atlassian

            This is a problem when using Git too, not just Mercurial.
            I lost too much work I'd done in the recent hour, too quick for my backup system.

            User expectations for any app are

            terminal command = instant deletion
            GUI app = uses Trash
